Hi I finally can install it. After I do ndiswrapper -m it will appear in
network config. How do you set the interface to be a dhcp client using
ifconfig command line? All that I can see it can only set up a static IP.
I do not think you can. DHCP is enabled in the
/etc/sysconfig/ifcfg-wlan0 (or whatever the interface is called).
Running 'service network restart' after setting up the config file
should restart the interface using the ifcfg- file.
